About this ebook

Lewis Carroll's 'Selected Mathematical Works' is a comprehensive collection of three of his lesser-known but influential pieces: 'Symbolic Logic,' 'The Game of Logic,' and 'Feeding the Mind.' Carroll's work delves into the world of mathematics through the lens of logic and reasoning, offering readers a unique perspective on mathematical concepts. With his playful and imaginative literary style, Carroll engages readers in complex mathematical ideas, making them accessible to a wider audience. These works are a testament to Carroll's diverse talents as a scholar and writer, showcasing his ability to blend literature and mathematics seamlessly. In the context of the Victorian era, Carroll's mathematical works were ahead of their time, challenging traditional academic perspectives and paving the way for future explorations in logic and symbolism. Lewis Carroll, known for his iconic work 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland,' was also a mathematician and logician, which undoubtedly influenced his writings on mathematics. His passion for both literature and mathematics is evident in 'Selected Mathematical Works,' making it a valuable contribution to the intersection of these two disciplines. I highly recommend this book to readers interested in exploring the fascinating connections between mathematics, logic, and literature, as well as those intrigued by Carroll's multifaceted talents and intellectual pursuits.
